Hi DiapDealer,

I think this is a Qt bug in QDockWidgets and Preview is a subclass of QtDockWidgets. I found some small sample code that allows you to drag and drop/attach detach all around. I sent it to you via e-mail.

Please try and build that sample code with Qt Creator and run it and see if it crashes the same way Preview does on your Linux box or under Windows. On my Mac with Qt 5.3.2, I can not make it crash at all.

If so, I think we can write this off as fixed in Qt 5.3.2

Take care,

KevinH

The binary Qt 5 downloads for Linux don't have separate Release/Debug versions of the libraries like the Windows downloads do ... and I can't seem to figure out how to load (or turn on) the extra debugging symbols for Qt5 itself. I may have to resort to using the Windows debugging tools to get a helpful backtrace. I don't look forward to remembering how to do that.
